I live in south west France where I run a small BnB. In the summer I occasionally need some help with general housekeeping and looking after guests as well as some maintenance. It would also be good to have somebody to help in the garden.I exchange for 4-5 hours a day 5 days a week you will have your own room and meals. Free unlimited WIFI available. The area is very rural with no public transport, although I am situated in a small town. It is a particularly beautiful area surrounded by vineyards.

I am restoring a three hundred year old farmhouse with traditional lime products. We are also restoring the vast bread oven that was originally built in 1709.

Volunteers do not typically need any particular skills, just bags of enthusiasm.

We do however need with carpentry, electrics and plumbing if you have the required skills.

*Need someone or a couple to do a garden tidy and house tidy/clean for family arriving soon!* We are a young family who live in a typical maison de maitre in the middles of rolling vineyards. We are easy going and would appreciate some help doing everyday things like helping in the house but if you want to do something more constructive theres plenty to do here like sorting out a vegetable patch, cutting logs or carpentry, painting etc! We also need a plumber, roofer and electrician. We could do with some strong hands at some point to dismantle a barn and we have an apartment that needs converting. We would love to be fairly self sufficient so someone that could help give us a start to do that would be great. We would also appreciate a French speaker to help us and the children improve our French (preferably someone with some patience!). In return we can offer comfortable accommodation, a relaxed friendly atmosphere, shared meals and lots of laughs. We have just acquired a caravan ...

My partner and I are carefully transforming our Gascon manor house and surrounds into a holistic retreat offering complementary therapies. We are very pro-active ourselves and will be working alongside you. We've been spending time in this part of France for over twenty years and we're passionate about restoring our estate to its former glory, complete with healing gardens that we'd hope to share with visiting workshop participants, etc. Work involves clearing large areas of scrubland, gardening/weeding and help with refining the property and adding some features to the grounds. It would suit somebody who enjoys satisfying but hard work in the open air and beautiful surrounds of the Gers region. There is a small town with bars, restaurants and shops about 5km away and the area is superb for walking and cycling - there are some bikes here if required.

We expect people to help us with the farming work AND with the every day life (preparing meals, little cleaning in the house).

The farming work is really depending on the weather (if it's raining, be prepared to...
